Dugout Discussion – Leicester vs Liverpool

23 September 2017 3161 comments

An eventful Saturday comes to its conclusion at the King Power as Leicester entertain Liverpool.

Jamie Vardy recovers from injury to lead the line for the hosts – he’s scored twice in each of his last two home outings against the Merseysiders.

The visitors’ Mo Salah has served up three sets of double-digits in four starts and will fancy his chances up against young Ben Chilwell down the hosts’ left. Only 2% have captained the Egyptian for Gameweek 6.

Roberto Firmino and Philippe Coutinho also start as the Reds look to bounce back from a pair of disappointing displays that have seen them scored just once in the last two Gameweeks.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    The reasons why pool attackers are scoring so much is because they face pool defenders in practice and their confidence is super high.

    A lot of people thinking about tripling up on strikers...to be honest I'm considering just going with Morata and Aguero in a two up top. Those two seem far more explosive and play in far better systems.

      Does explosive beat steady points?

        Yes for strikers, no for midfielders imo.

          Lukaku is a gift from the fpl gods, perfect player for this game imo

            But you're technically paying for constant output that could inconsistently matched by someone else, with more captaincy potential

      Probably many ways to combine for success. They are all scoring, and the two you identified are currently the top scorers.

        Had him this week but honestly think I could go without. He's being matched by cheaper players

        Superb. And right when Spurs go on a tough patch too.

      Not sure if you have heard but there is a lad at Spurs who can score a few goals from time to time*

      *And he's not called Sissoko

    Man City have scored 16 goals in their last 3 games and conceded zero goals.

    Should Jonty and Mark have given different advice on getting Man City attacking assets on the scoutcast?

    They were very lukewarm. Was there too much anti-City, anti-Pep sentiment ... or is it always easy to be wise after the event?

        I was a bit surprised they weren't more Pro-City. To be fair, though, I was hoping they wouldn't fire again today.
